Frequently asked questions

Some questions and answers are automatically generated.

How does this absolute compare to frankincense essential oil?
This absolute contains the full fragrance profile of the resin, including both essential oils and aromatic compounds absent from essential oil alone. Reviewers note it has a brighter, more citrus character, and several customers mention it is notably more fragrant and potent than the essential oil they previously used.
What does the scent profile include?
The product has a sensuous, sweet, citrus, and amber scent with notes of mint and camphor. Reviewers describe it variously as bright and citrus-forward, creamy and boozy, fresh and magical, making it suitable for those seeking a complex frankincense fragrance.
Will this mix easily with carrier oils?
Yes. One reviewer initially found it difficult to blend directly into lotion but discovered it mixes readily when combined with a carrier oil first, then added to the lotion. The product is designed to dissolve readily in alcohol and carrier oils.
What is the consistency like?
Reviewers describe it as honey-like, maple syrup consistency, and pourable. One customer noted it is actually less viscous than expected, making it easy to work with despite its thick appearance.
Good for making perfumes or incense?
Yes. The product acts as a fixative and heart-note in perfume compositions and is useful in incense-making as a binder and aromatic ingredient since it burns clean and sweet. The description notes it anchors more fleeting scents in perfume blends.
Can I use this in balms and salves?
Yes. One reviewer reported it worked tremendously in a pain-relieving balm they made. The description notes its solubility in carrier oils makes it ideal for oil-based and solid perfumes, medicated oils, salves, and creams.
How is this absolute extracted?
It is produced using food-grade alcohol alone with no harsh chemical solvents. Fresh Frankincense Dalzielii is powdered and macerated in 95% ethanol for a minimum of 8 weeks before filtering and gentle evaporation at room temperature to remove excess alcohol.
Does this contain boswellic acids?
Yes. The absolute contains all the resin acids and boswellic acids of Frankincense Dalzielii. The product comes from Nigerian frankincense, which the description notes contains the highest amount of boswellic acids found in any frankincense type according to recent research.
It contains both the essential oils and the aromatic resin. it has a broader fragrance profile than the essential oil alone and also contains all the resin acids of this Frankincense including all the Boswellic acids. This is noteworthy since the latest research has found that Frankincense Dalzielii from Nigeria contains the highest amount of Boswellic acids yet found in any Frankincense type.
It is produced using food-grade alcohol alone. No harsh chemical solvents were used in the extraction process.

Using only pure alcohol, fresh Frankincense Dalzielii is powdered and immersed in 95% ethanol. It is allowed to macerate at a controlled temperature and stirred daily for a minimum of 8 weeks before it is filtered to separate the odourless water-soluble gum compounds.

The filtered liquid is evaporated gently at room temperature to remove excess alcohol creating a thick aromatic liquid that dissolves readily in alcohol and carrier oils.
Due to its solubility in carrier oils, it makes an ideal ingredient in oil-based and solid perfumes while delivering therapeutic Boswellic acids to medicated oils, salves and cremes.

Frankincense Dalzielii has a sensuous, sweet, citrus, and Amber scent highlighted by notes of mint and camphor.

It acts as a fixative and heart-note in perfume compositions anchoring more fleeting and volatile scents and is useful in incense-making as a binder and an aromatic ingredient since it burns clean and sweet.

Review of Frankincense Dalzelii Absolute

Mr.Dan service and responding to questions in a timely manner was TOP TIER. Shipping and Handling was pretty quick also. I tried mixing the frankincense absolute in a lotion with difficulty ,wont mix in together so I mix the absolute frankincense with a carrier oil then adding it to the lotion and it blend in beautifully so now I know how to work with the absolutes with my body butters creations. When I recieved my package they were wrapped with care and the scent was a unique scent different to the essential oils of frankincense oils. Thank you Mr.Dan for creating such unique oils. Such a beautiful golden colour with a maple syrup consistency.

Unmatched quality

I had been using frankincense essential oil for several years for my skin when I came across Apothecary’s Garden. Ethical supplier. Great variety of products with in-depth information.I’ve loved the ones that I have tried so far. And this Dalzielii Absolute? I’ve been keeping it bedside just to open the lid and breathe in. Intoxicating. Thank you.
